The story of Mark Volman and Howard Kaylan is told -- from THE TURTLES to THE MOTHERS OF INVENTION to their solo career.
I just saw the film at a film festival in Hollywood. I thought THE TURTLES made a great subject, the time period and other musicians of the era were well represented. The budget is low, but the director (Bill Fishman) did a great job incorporating stock footage, animation, and a limited production schedule. Overall, if you like the song HAPPY TOGETHER, you will be entertained learning more about this group.
Also, Justin Henry, the child actor from Kramer vs. Kramer, turns out a great believable performance. Watch it.
